I'm considering getting this camera but am stuck between this and a Nikon D5100. Please help!

Added (1). Sorry i forgot to mention this. The camera i get would be used a majority for video making.picture taking is still important just not as much.

Added (2). Sorry i didn't think the same person would see the same thing twice. Lol.

Didn't I JUSst answer this? It's as good as the photographer behind it.
True story.
It's an awesome camera, but if you are doing primarily video you really should go with a video camera. There are still some issues with DSLR video like a 12 minute limit and overheating the sensor.
I think that your other option was the D5100? For video Nikon has the edge as they are the only camera that auto focuses while recording.

Yeah, it's the same group of photog's around here answering questions! You're welcome!

The nikon is better. And ^^^^ if you making a short movie it should be fine because you stop the video to change scenes it would have time to cool.
